The music for Final Fantasy VII was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, who wrote the track 'One Winged Angel' for the game's antagonist Sephiroth. Uematsu drew from opera and classical music, creating an orchestral piece that incorporated electronic elements. The London Symphony Orchestra performed the score under conductor Andrew Skeet, with Uematsu adding piano accompaniment.
Other musicians on the project included Rod Abernethy on guitars, Neil Black on drums, and Mitsuto Suzuki handling synthesizers. The soundtrack was released in 1997 alongside the game itself. 'One Winged Angel' has since appeared in various concerts and arrangements beyond the original game context.
The Final Fantasy VII soundtrack also includes tracks like 'Hollow' and '1000 Words' alongside 'One Winged Angel.' These pieces work together to create the musical backdrop for the game's narrative and characters.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
